It boasts may shops and restaurants, and even its own farmers' and craft market. The Canterbury region surrounding Lincoln offers a plethora of attractions, activities and natural wonders.
Lincoln is about twenty minutes from Christchurch, the largest city in the South Island of New Zealand. The city is in the process of transforming itself into one of the world’s newest, most sustainable cities. Christchurch has a vibrant arts and culture scene, with many festivals, live music, and theatre, making it an ideal place for students.
Housing
Lincoln University offers a variety of different housing options, including residence halls, apartments, and some houses that are just a few minutes’ walk from campus. The residence halls include a meal plan. You can even lodge with a New Zealand family in a homestay if you want to experience how Kiwis live. More information about housing at Lincoln University can be found here.
Program Considerations
In a physical sense, the on-site experience may be very different from life on the UW campus. You may walk or take public transportation more than you are used to in Madison. The physical activity level will vary by program, but in general you should be prepared for extended periods of time walking, potentially on uneven terrain.
For many students, discovering and experiencing new foods is a part of the experience. It is important to consider any dietary restrictions, whether they are due to health conditions, religious beliefs, or individual needs, and look into whether you can get the foods you need locally.
How you identify yourself in Madison may differ from how people will view you on-site. Consider exploring our Identity Resources to reflect on how your identities may impact your experience. Students with disabilities should keep in mind that attitudes and laws related to disabilities vary by country, and these differences may impact the level of accommodation available in a particular location. More details are available on our page on Study Abroad for Students with Disabilities.
We encourage you to contact your Study Abroad Advisor and share your accommodation needs with us as early as possible. This will allow us to help you explore your options in advance.
Excursions and Activities
The South Island of New Zealand is known for its incredible natural beauty, including mountain ranges, glaciers, beaches, & fjords.
The Lincoln University Student Associatoin (LUSA) offers a variety of clubs and organizations that student can join related to outdoor activities, culture, and identity groups. Accommodation organizes ski trips and other off campus activities throughout the year.
Some undergraduate courses at Lincoln include up to 5 field trip days per semester (to farms or industry partners, for example), depending on the course.
On-Site Support
You will receive support and assistance while on-site from Lincoln University Student Services and the Study Abroad and Exchange office. Students can also find support and get involved through the Lincoln University International Student Advisors.
Lincoln University holds a mandatory orientation session prior to each semester.
An orientation covering academic, administrative and site-specific details will also take place in Madison prior to departure.
Visa
A student visa is required. U.S. citizens must have a U.S. passport valid for at least six months beyond the end of the program. You will apply for your own visa. Study abroad staff will provide you with visa information. Non-U.S. Passport holders may have different visa requirements. Ask your Study Abroad Advisor if you have questions.
You may incur additional fees to expedite a visa application or to re-apply if your original visa application is rejected for any reason. You may also incur additional fees if your visa is delayed and you need to change your flight departure date.
Getting to Your Program
Students are responsible for booking their own flights to New Zealand, but will be provided with guidance on arrival & departure dates. Free airport pcikup is available for students who are staying in on-campus accoommodations or in homstays.
Insurance
New Zealand requires that students carry an insurance policy in addition to the CISI policy required by UW. Students are automatically enrolled and the cost is included with exchage tuition.
If you are a citizen of a country other than the United States and will remain/study in, or travel to your country of record (the location of your permanent residence), the insurance provided for you is the same as the “study away” insurance provided to U.S. citizens studying on domestic U.S. programs. You may want to explore alternative or additional international health and medical insurance that will cover your needs both while in and during any period of transit to/from your country of record. This may include participation in a national healthcare plan or coverage provided under a personal healthcare plan in your country of record. If you have questions about the coverage of the “study away” plan, please speak with your Study Abroad Advisor.
All other students participating on an international program will automatically be enrolled in Cultural Insurance Services International (CISI), the university's international health, medical and repatriation insurance policy.
Program cost information includes program fees, as well as out-of-pocket expenses with notes to help explain costs. Program fees are estimated and can be adjusted at any time. Once accepted, you will receive a cost sheet that includes confirmed program fees and additional out-of-pocket expenses. "The IAP Program Fee" and all processes and policies stated on this cost sheet apply to all participants on programs managed by International Academic Programs (IAP) and in partnership with the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences, the College of Engineering, and Wisconsin School of Business. All students participating on approved programs are all eligible to apply for scholarships administered through IAP when they meet the scholarship eligibility and selection criteria.
UW–Madison students can typically use their financial aid on UW–Madison study abroad, domestic study away, and international internship programs. You need to complete a FAFSA if you want to be eligible to receive federal and state financial aid.
Beginning in 2026-27, the Office of Student Financial Aid will require all incoming undergraduate students to submit a CSS profile.
Students Requiring Accommodations: Consult and register with the McBurney Disability Resource Center McBurney Services if you will need academic, housing, and/or other disability-related accommodations or services abroad.

This scholarship is available to degree-seeking UW-Madison undergraduate students studying abroad on any UW-Madison study abroad program. Preferences for this scholarship include a minimum 2.75 cumulative GPA, financial need, first generation college student, and first time abroad.
The Bryan Davia Scholarship was created in his honor to commemorate his life and to continue to share his gift of enriching the lives of everyone around him. As someone who loved to explore the world and everything life had to offer, Bryan would want nothing more than to help others do the same. Bryan was a compassionate, outgoing, hard working alumni of UW-Madison who cherished his time studying abroad in Barcelona. During his time abroad, Bryan set out to discover everything his new home had to offer. Bryan possessed the ability to extract the energy of a city through the exploration of its music, nightlife, and food allowing him to fully integrate himself within his environment and it’s culture. Bryan understood the value of knowledge gained from experiences and social interactions, rather than just in a classroom. We hope the recipient of this scholarship shares his devotion to balancing hard work with an unrelenting desire to explore, discover, and enjoy every moment in their new city.
